Uwe Schindler commented on LUCENE-2309: --------------------------------------- bq. I could imagine a really simple interface like During lunch an idea evolved: If you look at current DocInverter code, it does not use a consumer-like API. The code just has an add/accept-method that accepts tokens. The idea is to, as Simon proposed, let the docinverter implement something like AttributeAcceptor. But still we must have the attribute api and the acceptor (DocInverter) must always see the same attribute instances (else much time would be spent to each time call getAttribute(...) for each token, if the accept method would take an AttributeSource. The current TokenStream api could get a method taking AttributeAcceptor and simply do a while incrementToken() loop, calling accept() on DocInverter (the AttributeAcceptor). Another approach for users would be to not use the TokenStream API at all and simply call the accept() method for each token. > Fully decouple IndexWriter from analyzers > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-2309 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-2309 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Index > Reporter: Michael McCandless > > IndexWriter only needs an AttributeSource to do indexing. > Yet, today, it interacts with Field instances, holds a private > analyzers, invokes analyzer.reusableTokenStream, has to deal with a > wide variety (it's not analyzed; it is analyzed but it's a Reader, > String; it's pre-analyzed). > I'd like to have IW only interact with attr sources that already > arrived with the fields. This would be a powerful decoupling -- it > means others are free to make their own attr sources. > They need not even use any of Lucene's analysis impls; eg they can > integrate to other things like [OpenPipeline|http://www.openpipeline.org]. > Or make something completely custom. > LUCENE-2302 is already a big step towards this: it makes IW agnostic > about which attr is "the term", and only requires that it provide a > BytesRef (for flex). > Then I think LUCENE-2308 would get us most of the remaining way -- ie, if the > FieldType knows the analyzer to use, then we could simply create a > getAttrSource() method (say) on it and move all the logic IW has today > onto there. (We'd still need existing IW code for back-compat). -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
